Through the use of Content Pack Concept for SelfService BI, ECM, Search and BigData, we hope to bring you the ability to use the same demos we have built based with examples like Contoso Medical, Great White Gears, Contoso Schools, AdventureWorks Camping Supplies, TailSpinToys, Contoso Casino, and more. We have extended the Content Pack Concept to include SQL and AD-DS OUs, Users, and Groups so that we can now install SQL 2012 SP1 and SharePoint 2013 in the same configuration as our environment, that allows us to give you these demos.

This project consists of a PowerShell script, some XML input files, which together provide a fully automated creation of the Service Accounts required for SharePoint Server 2013.

The project comes with three different sets of Service Accounts for both SQL and SharePoint. You have the low, medium and high security option. The Higher Security, the more accounts you have in order to better achieve the Least Privilege Service Accounts. However, there is also an XML file you can define and create what users you want!

The SharePoint Template Hub makes it possible for you to have a centralized repository for your templates. It solves the issue with one-to-one relationships between Content Types and Templates by splitting this up, and give you the possibility to reuse a content type for several templates without any implications. All templates can also have metadata connected to them that will come over to the document when it is saved in the target document library.

The document template repository is a standard SharePoint Document Library, thus it supports all the standard metadata, publishing and workflow features for working with your document templates, just like you would expect with regular documents.

Caml Designer 2013

The functionality of this version of the tool is similar to what it offers you for SharePoint 2010:

you can build CAML queries for single lists

you can build queries that can be executed with SPSiteDataQuery

beside the pure CAML queries, you can also get code snippets for the server-side object model, the .NET client-side object model, the JavaScript client-side object model and last but not least code snippets when working with REST.

With this first version of the tool you are not able to connect to SharePoint 2013 online yet, but it is definitely something we are going to look at for next version.

Responsive Frameworks for SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013

The goal of this project is to provide popular grid and responsive frameworks converted to SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013. That is right, we are taking the best pre-build web front-end frameworks and doing the hard part for you, converting them to work within the SharePoint environment. Our current plan is to convert the two most popular frameworks,Twitter Bootstrap and Zurb Foundation (3) and convert them to work in both SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013. In SharePoint 2013 we intend to also utilize Design Manager. Documentationincluded in each package is very thorough as we attempt to explain how to use the framework packages.

Do you want to merge your SharePoint Data to Microsoft Word but don’t know how to do it? SharePoint Data Doc (SPDD) is the worlds first Microsoft Word Add In to allow users to draw their live SharePoint data directly to their active documents. Available for Excel, too.

This problem is more complex than it seems because SharePoint allows and encourages changes to systems that are in production. How can you ensure that the changes you make work before deploying them to all users? How can you create versions of script and style sheet resources so that you can maintain backwards compatibility with previous solutions?

SP SIN solves these problems by allowing site owners, or those granted permissions, to inject script or style sheet resources into pages without touching any of the pages. All of this is accomplished using SharePoint best practices and recommended approaches only.
